Bobby Capobianco's dunk with 5:35 to play gave Valpo a 62-50 lead, its largest of the game, before an 11-4 spurt by Detroit -- which was opened and capped by jumpers from Juwan Howard, Jr. -- pulled the Titans within 67-61 with just under 2 minutes to play.

Valparaiso made 9 of 12 free throws in the final 1:28 to seal the victory.
